It took me less than a minute on the site to run into factually wrong information, broken citations, etc. Cannot imagine rotting my brain with knowingly bad information for over 2 hours

Your example proxies the console object, the intended way in this case is to make a proxy from the log function itself and use the apply hook

toString will be called on the Proxy and not your hook so it won't reveal anything

My bad! Switched over to the github pages fallback. Cloudflare pages isn't suitable because the wasm files (100mb+) exceed the 25mb limit. (i could bypass this with service worker jank but that tends to be fragile). Github Pages also isn't suitable because it doesn't have a native way of sending the coi/coep headers that are required for SharedArrayBuffer to be available. Can also bypass that with service worker jank but I would prefer not to

i do wish! firefox has web features missing that i need on a daily basis, and their developer team seems wholly uninterested on working on them at all

i would always tell them to install firefox. this is mostly for developers and tech oriented people who need to keep chrome around

why? firefox performance will always be worse than blink, if only because of spidermonkey

the last thing people want from electron is a worse version of it hogging more resources

the ability to make "worthless trash games" is the only reason that the indie industry can exist at all. there are huge communities around sharing small lower-effort projects (which countless well-received games started out as) and gatekeeping an engine to enterprise customers only would be a far far worse decision than what they've already done

besides, the rates only kick in after your profit reaches 200k so it wouldn't do anything
